Carrot Soup
2 tablespoons butter or bacon fat
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup finely diced celery
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
4 cups beef stock
4 cups freshly sliced carrots (I think I would
...rather shred these, less cooking time then too)
Salt and pepper to taste
In a medium skillet, brown onion and celery in butter or bacon fat.
Blend in flour and enough of the beef stock to make a smooth paste.
Pour into a soup kettle.
Add carrots, remaining beef stock and seasonings.
Simmer on low heat 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
Serve hot.
If a smooth soup is desired, strain through a sieve (or
process in a blender/food processor).
Serve hot.
